The ILM 1980s Anti-Rolling Stone Canon (FREE PUSSY RIOT) Rock Poll Results - Tracks! Final top 10 results happening right now.

I love The Runaways, not so mad about solo Joan Jett. But obv I Love Rock 'n' Roll is one of those songs that you can't really argue about.

you didn't even remember to vote! I had to remind you

i think i only voted for one or two Sonic Youth tracks and not big consensus ones, thought the nominated choices were odd but then not sure they really deserve to have a big presence on the tracks poll vs. the albums poll

TOO LOW. For real.

lets compromise and not have them have a big presence on either xxpost

folks, today we have failed to honour the fire

Although another excuse to listen to it at high volume is always welcome xpost.

I suspect that I do not "get" The Butthole Surfers

jimi? are you listening to jimi? it's really fucking long. And great.

xp to DJP I don't get the Butthole Surfers either. Not heavy, not catchy, what are they?

oh that's a good song. Didn't vote for it :/

xps

YES

IDIOTS

jjj a few ppl upthread asked for (FREE PUSSY RIOT) to be added to the thread title as 2 people "voted" for that. Can you do it?

Also edward no youtube embeds please.

Also pour some custard down neil's trousers

you have the wrong Youtube for "The Trooper"

http://youtu.be/keZkk28CtoU

I def don't get the Butthole Surfers but I still find myself listening to them quite a bit.

yes custard me I demand it!

shitty pepper era butthole surfers do not exist

they did a metallica and split up

also I prefer the version of "jimi" called "flame grape" from the compilation called a texas trip... it's more uh, 4D if you catch my drift

http://youtu.be/HeJBl7xrwqE

Thanks jjj! And for that I give you...

I nominated and voted for both the Swans' Half Life and the Minutemen track. the Minutemen's Bob Dylan is superficially similar to all of their other tracks, but its locked guitar/bass clamor careens forward w/exceptional abandon, and earned it a top ten spot. the Swans track injects Sabbath fanaticism w/no-wave guitar racket f/an extra-loud dose of downer bliss. the best track of the Cop/Young God dirge era and a shining beacon of hateful intransigence. Night Ranger fans may find matters less to their liking.

AG-

at work and way, way behind at updating (and commentary). will be out soon and will continue to update playlist.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

oh yes

when Butthole Surfers work for me, it's bcz… kind of agressive headfuckery hooked up to weird (but really technically together, imo) sonic assault. Tastes of acid a bit. Even when you're over the unexpectedness, there's nice detail scattered around their sounds.

at the end of the day, this is the only unambiguously great post-Land of Rape and Honey song Ministry put out

bob dylan wrote protest songs is my go to "plz ezplain the minutemen to me i have 3 minutes" track.

the butthole surfers have such a wide variety of styles and sounds that hearing a few tracks aren't really going to tell the story, plus it helps if you have or have had a massive drug problem, also if you don't like this song I don't really understand you

http://youtu.be/GZjUxMumWYE

also who is the lead singer of Candlemass, because woah wasn't expecting to hear a lyric tenor singing metal (they're usually all heldens)

Jesus Built My Hotrod xxxp

Ministry Youtube is the amazing In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up version which even kills the album version.

since its prob too late to see it place skinny puppys "facist jock itch" has for me the definitional stuttering hey whoa is the drum machine broken moment of the entire ministry experience

Dan From their 2nd album onwards til 90s was Messiah Marcolin (the mad monk)

I am a huge minuteman fan and I don't really like "bob dylan wrote propaganda songs"

prolly cuz it's called "bob dylan wrote propaganda songs"

bob dylan wrote protest songs is my go to "plz ezplain the minutemen to me i have 3 minutes" track.

do you play it twice?

He came back but quit again. He's the fans favourite but a total diva.

re. BHole Surfers. I should give them more time, but that doesn't seem right for that kind of band- either you like them or you don't, and I'm happy not to and accept I'm missing out.

"Jesus Built My Hotrod" sucks super hard and has always been a terrible song

The first Candlemass album is the best but it has a different singer. Hes great though. He did do roadburn with them a few years ago.
They just recently sacked the Solitude Aeturnus singer Robert Lowe. He has an awesome voice too.

no way dan!
